This paper describes a general, scalable, end-to-end framework that uses the generative adversarial network (GAN) objective to enable robust speech recognition. Encoders trained with the proposed approach enjoy improved invariance by…

Recent deep learning based single image super-resolution (SISR) methods mostly train their models in a clean data domain where the low-resolution (LR) and the high-resolution (HR) images come from noise-free settings (same domain) due to…

Recently, mainstream mel-spectrogram-based neural vocoders rely on generative adversarial network (GAN) for high-fidelity speech generation, e.g., HiFi-GAN and BigVGAN. However, the use of GAN restricts training efficiency and model…

This paper introduces a new method of generating realistic pervasive changes in the context of evaluating the effectiveness of change detection algorithms in controlled settings. The method, a cycle-consistent adversarial network…

Recently, CycleGAN was shown to provide high-performance, ultra-fast denoising for low-dose X-ray computed tomography (CT) without the need for a paired training dataset. Although this was possible thanks to cycle consistency, CycleGAN…

We propose a new architecture and training methodology for generative adversarial networks. Current approaches attempt to learn the transformation from a noise sample to a generated data sample in one shot. Our proposed generator…

Non-parallel multi-domain voice conversion (VC) is a technique for learning mappings among multiple domains without relying on parallel data. This is important but challenging owing to the requirement of learning multiple mappings and the…

Non-autoregressive GAN-based neural vocoders are widely used due to their fast inference speed and high perceptual quality. However, they often suffer from audible artifacts such as tonal artifacts in their generated results. Therefore, we…

Since we were babies, we intuitively develop the ability to correlate the input from different cognitive sensors such as vision, audio, and text. However, in machine learning, this cross-modal learning is a nontrivial task because different…

We introduce a novel sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) voice conversion (VC) model based on the Transformer architecture with text-to-speech (TTS) pretraining. Seq2seq VC models are attractive owing to their ability to convert prosody. While…

Recently, BigVGAN has emerged as high-performance speech vocoder. Its sequence-to-sequence-based synthesis, however, prohibits usage in low-latency conversational applications. Our work addresses this shortcoming in three steps. First, we…

Classical parametric speech coding techniques provide a compact representation for speech signals. This affords a very low transmission rate but with a reduced perceptual quality of the reconstructed signals. Recently, autoregressive deep…

Cycle consistent generative adversarial network (CycleGAN) and variational autoencoder (VAE) based models have gained popularity in non-parallel voice conversion recently. However, they often suffer from difficult training process and…

Recently, the power of unconditional image synthesis has significantly advanced through the use of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). The task of inverting an image into its corresponding latent code of the trained GAN is of utmost…

Precise control over speech characteristics, such as pitch, duration, and speech rate, remains a significant challenge in the field of voice conversion. The ability to manipulate parameters like pitch and syllable rate is an important…

Self-imitating feedback is an effective and learner-friendly method for non-native learners in Computer-Assisted Pronunciation Training. Acoustic characteristics in native utterances are extracted and transplanted onto learner's own speech…

Voice conversion is a method that allows for the transformation of speaking style while maintaining the integrity of linguistic information. There are many researchers using deep generative models for voice conversion tasks. Generative…

This paper proposes a novel voice conversion (VC) method based on non-autoregressive sequence-to-sequence (NAR-S2S) models. Inspired by the great success of NAR-S2S models such as FastSpeech in text-to-speech (TTS), we extend the…

In recent years, neural vocoders have surpassed classical speech generation approaches in naturalness and perceptual quality of the synthesized speech. Computationally heavy models like WaveNet and WaveGlow achieve best results, while…

Typically, neural network-based speech dereverberation models are trained on paired data, composed of a dry utterance and its corresponding reverberant utterance. The main limitation of this approach is that such models can only be trained…
